Unbelievable Method wasted on me.

[Overnight]

Thankyou for the kind words, but I must emphasise that charts are more than just random events. This strategy is proof, I have seen enough to convince me that charts make the news, not the other way round. Crazy as it sounds, thats what I believe.

The fact that you posted that line..."This strategy is proof, I have seen enough to convince me that charts make the news, not the other way round. Crazy as it sounds, thats what I believe."

…leads me to believe that you simply have not been trading long enough. You are only believing what you think you see, not what others know. Charts CANNOT drive markets. Only the future can influence the present. That is why the markets are tanking right now...Because the future looks bleak for any more rapidish-expansion. Now that guidance is being curtailed, the markets are giving no quarter with the current valuations. (Dig deep into the word "quarter" in this context, it has nothing to do with calendars or earnings.)

Your best trading partner is yourself. Since you say you have very little experience with both commodities and trading mechanics in general, then I give you the same advice I give anyone new who wants to try it live in commods…

Trade CME's MGC (micro gold). Only $1 per tick. Try your strategy on it with one contract. You will make or lose the smallest amount you possibly can with each tick in a commodity future, but you will still see the price action you are looking for.

If you want to try it with FX futures, there's also the M6E, but I am not as familiar with it. I am sure it is quite similar to MGC.

And also, please invest the money into a trading package that has charting capabilities. Stockcharts.com, barcharts.com, and all these others....Nuh uh...You need a trading package with charts you can trade from. Go big or go home, spend the money on your trading business. Invest in a trading/charting package. You need real-time access to live market data streams at the tick level, not some web-based "chart system".

Ok so Ive been studying charts for about 5 years to see what all this trading is about. It took me all of this study and experimentation looking at charts for hours each day to try and figure out what the pro traders see or if there was anything to actually “see”.

I looked at so many charts, I was seeing traces of them on walls, floors and ceilings. Every few months I identified a new pattern but nothing that gave me the WOW factor until about mid 2016 when my subconscious picked up on something it had seen before. It took me about a year afterwards to even put the pieces together of what i was seeing.

I have seen this method produce amazing results, almost to the point of perfection. I believe I have a very valuabe strategy that would benefit greatly from somone with lots of trading experience. I have stayed small in position sizing because of my limited trading experience. I have a ton of evidence of this.

I guess im treating this like an appearance on dragons den, I need help to apply this in the markets. Not looking for and money, more like a trading buddy with vast experience.

If experience and trading advice/technical analysis is what you need, let me know.

My problem is unfamiliarity with trading in itself, buy/ask/spreads/buying and selling/ executing a trade .........and money management. All these things are very important and need to be understood. Idont have another 5 years to grasp all this stuff lol .

Why, where u going? Bit like a trainee surgeon saying 'Look mate, i don't have another 5 years to learn this crap, just give me the knife!'
